SIBI-P1 H5127-37
he will flee
| Root | נוס (n-w-s) |
| Core Meanings | to flee, take flight, escape, vanish away, retreat |
| Semantic Range | to flee from danger, escape pursuit, retreat in battle, vanish or disappear, be driven away (in passive-like contexts), or figuratively to fade or pass away |
| Conceptual Significance | The verb often marks human response to threat, judgment, or overwhelming power—whether fleeing enemies, divine wrath, or calamity. It also appears in legal contexts (e.g., flight to a city of refuge), highlighting themes of danger, protection, and deliverance in Israel’s covenant life. |
| Morphological Notes | Verb, Qal stem, imperfect (yiqtol) 3rd masculine singular; one occurrence reflects jussive nuance (HVqj3ms). The Qal conveys simple active flight or escape. |
| Rendering Rationale | The form is Qal imperfect 3rd masculine singular, indicating simple active action by a masculine singular subject. "He will flee" preserves the basic root sense of taking flight or escaping, while accurately reflecting the masculine singular subject and imperfect (incomplete/future) aspect; in jussive contexts it may carry the nuance "let him flee." |
